You would prefer Jeff Salazar or Alex Romero over the .345 hitting Augie Ojeda with the game on the line? Really?
I like Augie Ojeda alot. But he wasn't the man for that spot.

Sutton and Grace said that CoJack was available to pinch-hit. 'Much more likely than Augie to hit a routine fly ball to the outfield, and much easier than hitting a single through the infield.

Reggie Sanders is awful
I used to watch Reggie Sanders when he played for the D'backs. He was the only player on the field (actually the only one I've ever seen -- and I've been attending Major League baseball games since 1952) who didn't crouch down when the pitcher was ready to deliver to the plate.

Reggie would stand nonchalantly in RF, then jog after balls hit just to his left or right, turning the opponents singles into doubles.

I don't expect to see anyone in any field of endeavor have perfect skills.

I do expect to see them have perfect attitude.

Nick Piecoro said he wasn't available, so who knows.

As soon as Braun hit his home run I knew it was over and just hit fast-forward on the dvr to see the results. Wasn't surprised at all that it ended 7-1. No offense and suspect defense - and Scherzer got owned!

Nope, I have nothing but respect for him and he deserved a helluva lot better from his offense than what he got, but then so do all of the starters lately!

I agree....its very hard to be optimistic about this team when they are playing on the road. They are very fortunate that the Dodgers are playing like crap too

I was actually referring to his postgame analysis on FSN. He's the baseball version of Tim Hardaway.

I know. I made reference to his playing days, because I don't enjoy seeing someone as lackadaisical as he was being rewarded with a cushy post-game analysis job.

P.S.: It's a damn shame that a lifeless D'backs team is blocking RJ's path to a 300-win career.

Hey Syracuse,

A couple of weeks ago, you were telling me about how hot our hitters are and that I was over rationalizing the slump. How do you feel now?

Missed it. Saw the 10-0 score and errors on the news. Not good.

10-1, actually. But it was over early. Micah got rocked again and then no offense and poor defense - again. I think we all got little too excited too early this season. It is still a little early to panic, but June looks worse than May at this point.

Look at the bright side. At least the DBacks didn't lose last night. Even picked up half a game. The NL West is pathetic right now - not a good thing....
